Yeah, I'm not sure what they have in common other than a vagina and a foreign accent. I like them both though.

I think Moments in Movement is a 2006 release. At least in Aussieland

Of those albums Bernard's is far and away my favorite album from this year. It's probably my favorite album of the year, but I have to finish digesting a few other albums before I can safely make that call in my own head. But it would definitely be in my top 3 albums of the year, with it most likely ending up number one long term.

I just haven't been able to get into this Buck album like I thought I would. It's not bad, it just doesn't have a strong entry point for me like his last several have. But then I was part of that contigent that loved the direction he was moving with his art the last several years, and a "return to form" is more a regression for me. Not saying the album is bad by any means, it's certainly fantastic. But it's so far proving to not really be my cup of tea.

And I still don't give half an asshole about that El-P album.

Can we get a non-hiphop top five albums from Sage perhaps?

I have heard so few albums this past year.
I never even heard the 11:11 album. So my top 5's are limited to what I've been exposed to, and all I've been exposed to this year is live performances.

What non-hiphop albums would you expect to be in my top 5?
Maybe I can go out and get them. Please don't list Roadiohead

I really think you'd like that Hellfire Hymns album by Those Poor Bastards. Deertick, maybe? Jens Lekman's album....The Liars album....Do you like Nick Cave? Because his Grinderman group album might be in there. Gogol Bordello was this year I think too. Feist's album. This might be easier:
